We'll never get enough stops against a high end passing game.  As a Colts fan, that's the sinking feeling.  If feels like they are up by much more than 7.

 

I hear you. The defense needs to get another stop. 

[cdgacoltsfan]

run...taylor scored easily up the middle but Frank overthinks.

[CamMo]

Should have had him there Darius.

Colts left an easy 6 points off the board with that shenk and going for it on 4th down.  They really needed those points now. 

Who knows if he even makes the first one at this point.. Lol

[Dingus McGirt]

Wonderful tackling...

[IanColts22]

Cmon we need a stop now and we have a chance still pls Colts please I know we won’t win the SB but pls let me cheer you on another week just one more week all I ask from Santa as my Xmas gift!

This is true, I don't think he's looked good of late at all.  Didn't he shenk 2-3 vs Pitts?

Yeah but they have way more experience than anyone on this Forum because they're pros

They are the same guys who talked about the Bills being world beaters in the last 6 games, but not mentioning they beat 4 teams with losing records, a Pitt team that also lost to Cinci and WA, and a Fitz-less Miami team... Very thorough... 

[MB-ColtsFan]

That first down could be the game.

Will you maintain that opinion even if we win this game?

I agree with him. I go back and forth on Rivers. But, look at Allen's ability to escape. Rodgers, Allen, Tannehill, Lamar, Mahomes, Wilson, Murray, etc. 

 

The older, slow QB's have all hurt their team this year in many games. Brady, Brees, Big Ben, Rivers. 
 

All of them have stacked teams and would be a lot better with mobile QB's IMO

[John Waylon]

Well down. 

[Chrisaaron1023]

Yeah.. it's not for us today.. 

[Colts Fan In L.A.]

That would have been sweet

Absolutely.  Said it all year.

 

I really like Rivers but he is not a gamechanger.  He is a game manager. 

Several teams have won Superbowls with "game managers", and great defenses.

[coming on strong]

going up two scores with one quarter is a death sentence .  it was a solid year though colts need to have much more disciplined next year limit mistakes go back to fundamentals .

They weren't awful. Again, Allen's WRs are catching very imperfect passes.

 

And you could also focus on drops by Pascal, Taylor, and others. I'm not talking about he last drop by Taylor. He was about ready to get blown up for a loss, so it's actually good he didn't catch it. 

 

I'm scratching my head more why Frank is not using Bigs in the RZ vs their tiny DBs, why he didn't take the 3pts, and why he used Hines on a gut goal line run... 

Difference is Allen is making those passes while running full speed towards the sidelines and completing them.  Rivers could never do that.

[IndyEric07]

Doesnt help that every single call and break has gone Buffs way!

[Chrisaaron1023]

Allen could pitch it backwards to no one and the bills would recover.

[chickenMan]

The one time we get a turnover lol...of course he was down already

[Dasteez]

Defense is desperate for a take away. Clearly down when the ball came out. Make a play to take it away

Colts don't have anywhere close to a great D.

It literally hit him ON THE FINGERTIPS after Pittman reached back farther than most other WRs in the league could to try to catch that horribly thrown ball. It was that far off.

There, fixed it for you.

[CanuckColtsFan]

Allen has been incredible 

[coming on strong]

the defense tried so hard they are holding the number one scoring offense very well today . the offense needs work in the offseason 24 touchdowns is not gonna cut it in a passing league .  QBs need to be over 30

What does that have to do with the WRs catching imperfect balls while ours aren't.

Let’s not blame refs, we are digging our own grave unless we can pull something out the bag soon.

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

At least it's obvious he was down. Couldn't handle another the ruling on the field stands.....

[DontEverGiveUp]

What a stupid challenge by Reich

[Chrisaaron1023]

Lol we challenged?!

I completely agree, and the thing is next year they will be slower, weaker, and less accurate than this year. That's why we should move on, I appreciate everything Rivers did this year but he's no longer at his peak and will not improve.

So because Philip is as young & athletic as Allen anymore, he's virtually worthless? I don't buy it.

What the * did they challenge that play for? Idiocy. 

[ColtsSouljah]

WHY WOULD YOU CHALLENGE THAT

The Colts have the talent and attitude of a great D, but they don’t have the schemes or playcalling. They play way too much soft zone and do very few stunts or blitzes

[Happy2BeHere]

What a dumb challenge

[John Waylon]

HE CHALLENGED THAT?!

 

Meathead

[Lucky Colts Fan]

[HOZER]

Wow that was obviously not a fumble oh my. And now Bills TD. Great.

[Colts Fan In L.A.]

Ball game. Great season Colts. Love you guys! Let's get them next season 

[Chrisaaron1023]

And no pressure onnallen
